RAParts One Replacement Single Stage Snowblower Paddles and Scraper

In this review the RAParts One replacement snowblower paddles and scraper bar are evaluated for homeowners and landscapers who need a straightforward, low-cost repair for MTD two-cycle single stage snow throwers made since 1988. The single biggest reason to buy is the direct compatibility and complete set composition: six rubber paddles and a full scraper bar sized to replace the original parts, which makes restoring throwing performance quick and inexpensive. The review focuses on fit, material thickness, and the practical benefits of replacing worn paddles and scraper for improved snow clearance and reduced wear on the auger housing.

Key Features

• Complete set: Includes six rubber paddles and one scraper bar so users replace all contact wear parts at once and avoid repeated trips to the shop.
• Thick rubber paddles: Paddles measure 0.292 in to 0.300 in thick, providing durable contact with the snow and pavement for longer life than thinner replacements.
• Scraper dimensions: The scraper bar is 19-13/16 in long, 2-11/16 in wide and 7/16 in thick, matching the geometry of the originals for correct clearance and blade angle.
• Multiple mounting positions: Two center-to-center hole spacings of 5-1/2 in and 6 in and four positions mean the scraper bar fits a range of single stage models without modification.
• OEM cross-references: Replaces part numbers 731-0781A, 731-0782 and 731-0780A so buyers can confirm compatibility with older MTD part lists.

Who It's For

This replacement set is best for owners of MTD two-cycle single stage snow throwers and blowers built since 1988 who need an exact-fit repair without sourcing OEM parts. It suits DIYers who want to restore snow removal performance by replacing worn paddles and the scraper bar at once, and for service shops that handle common mid-season repairs.

Those who should look elsewhere include owners of two-stage snow blowers or machines from other categories, because the paddles and scraper are specific to single stage MTD units. If an exact OEM finish, branding or non-aftermarket warranty matters, buyers may prefer to seek an official OEM replacement instead.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Full replacement kit restores the entire paddle and scraper assembly in one purchase.
• Durable paddle thickness (0.292 in-0.300 in) resists premature tearing during normal use.

Cons

• Aftermarket branding means some buyers may prefer OEM-marked parts for dealer service records.
• Limited to MTD two-cycle single stage models; it will not fit two-stage machines or unrelated brands without verification.
